Abstract:
A driving roller for conveying a sheet to a sheet punching unit, and a sheet inverting unit including a driving roll capable of being driven to rotate by the driving roller are provided between a branching point, at which a return path of a sheet conveying path is branched, and a sheet punching unit. When a subsequent sheet for which a punching process is performed next reaches the sheet inverting unit, the sheet to which the punching process has been performed by the sheet punching unit is conveyed to the return path by the driving roll while making the sheet pass by a subsequent sheet conveyed to the sheet punching unit by the driving roller.
Abstract:
A sheet processing apparatus includes: a conveying roller that conveys a sheet; a lateral registration skew correcting unit that corrects a position in a width direction orthogonal to a sheet conveying direction, of the sheet conveyed by the conveying roller; and a sheet processing portion that performs processing on the sheet conveyed by the conveying roller. A plurality of types of sheet processing portions is replaceable, and the sheet processing apparatus includes a puncher controller that changes an operation of the lateral registration skew correcting unit according to the type of the sheet processing portion.
Abstract:
A sheet punching device comprises a first blade, a first die into which the first blade is fitted from a first surface of a sheet to form a punch hole in the sheet, a second blade, and a second die into which the second blade is fitted. The second blade is inserted into the punch hole formed by the first blade from a second surface of the sheet and fitted into the second die.
Abstract:
An image reading apparatus reads an image of a sheet conveyed from an image forming apparatus. The image reading apparatus includes a transparent member including a first surface disposed on a first side on which the sheet is conveyed and a second surface disposed on a second side opposite to the first side, an image reading portion disposed on the second side and configured to read the image of the sheet at a reading position through the transparent member, an elastic member disposed to abut against the second surface of the transparent member and configured to press the transparent member toward the first side, and a guide disposed upstream of the reading position and configured to guide the sheet to the reading position. A downstream end of the guide contacts with the first surface of the transparent member and presses the transparent member toward the second side.
Abstract:
A foil transfer device includes a foil transfer unit configured to perform foil transfer processing of transferring a foil to a sheet with a toner image formed thereon, a first conveyance path configured to convey the sheet from a reception portion to the foil transfer unit and convey the sheet passed through the foil transfer unit to a discharge portion, and a second conveyance path configured to convey the sheet from the reception portion to the discharge portion without the sheet passing through the foil transfer unit.
Abstract:
A sheet processing apparatus comprising: a scoring unit which scores a sheet; a folding unit which folds a sheet bundle including a plurality of sheets; a pressing unit which presses a folded part of the sheet bundle folded by the folding unit; and a controller which determines, based on information on the sheet bundle, whether the scoring unit scores the sheet included in the sheet bundle to be folded and whether the pressing unit presses the folded part of the sheet bundle.
Abstract:
A sheet processing apparatus includes a first stacking portion on which a sheet conveyed by a conveying portion is stacked, a binding portion which forms, in a sheet bundle stacked on the first stacking portion, a tongue cut out from the sheet, with a part of the tongue attached to the sheet, and a slit, and which binds the sheet bundle by inserting a tip of the tongue of the sheet bundle in the slit of the sheet bundle, and a second stacking portion on which the sheet bundle bound by the binding portion is stacked. In the sheet processing apparatus, a plurality of recessed parts is formed on a guide face of the binding portion, the recessed parts extending in different directions from each other.
Abstract:
A sheet transport apparatus includes a transport guide that is included in a first transport path along which a sheet is to be transported and a flapper that selectively guides the sheet, which is transported by passing through the first transport path, to a second transport path and a third transport path. The transport guide has an air-blowing hole that is positioned further upstream than the flapper in a transport direction of the sheet. The sheet transport apparatus further includes an air-blowing fan that blows air to the flapper from outside the first transport path via the air-blowing hole.
